Abstract
A document stating that on May 10, 1824 the faculty of the Amherst Collegiate Institution came to the opinion that the junior class "generally acquitted themselves with honor" at their late examination. It also states that the faculty observed that many members of the class excelled. The faculty hopes that all will elevate themselves to "the sphere of unqualified approbation." The document is signed by Heman Humphrey on behalf of the faculty. A note on the back of the document states "Result of the May examination 1824."
